ARTIST STATEMENT

I use objects, models and nature for reference material but only to inform my true interest, which is the composing of imaginary works using personally meaningful themes. My paintings are a melding of invention, memory and observation

.
My interest is to capture a mood in my paintings and to create a composition in which that mood resonates. My hope is that viewers find their own meaning and that the calm focus I experienced in the process of painting is also experienced in the viewing.


My work is exhibited the first Thursday of every month in Studio 391 of the Northrup King Building between 5 and 9 p.m. and on Saturday afternoons.
